Tours of the Lost City have been operating since 1994 on a route little changed since the early days. The ruins can be reached only by trekking through 50 kilometres of testing jungle terrain, a round trip that takes five days.

The hike from Santa Marta costs 600,000 Colombian pesos and includes transfers from Santa Marta to the national park, basic accommodation (at least one night sleeping in hammocks), food and safe drinking water. See buritaca2000.com for more information
